Guest guest Posted July 5, 2002 Report Share Posted July 5, 2002 > > Do you only reply to people you know or what? Nobody here knows eachother to my knowledge, we are all pain patients like you are on our home computers and don't meet off list, though there have been attempts to get chats going, but I haven't participated in any. This group is for support, encouragement,sharing experiences thoughts and ideas and it is shaped by each member and each persons participation.I hope you will write more. I reply to the posts that I have something to contribute, add or respond to with any knowledge or experience I have had though lately very involved with some issues of my own which indirectly reflect on anybody in chronic pain. In the past, I have posted things too that nobody has replied to, because I assumed nobody had anything to say about it,didn't read it, or whatever, which is fine and other times this isn't the case. Also, many people get on and post and don't read through all the mail all the time,because everyone has times they can't sit at the computer or whatever reason, some people here only check their mail or the board once a day, week, month or every once in awhile. Some people prefer to reply privately and not on the list. Sometimes if you see someone say something that strikes a chord with you, it's good for you to jump in and participate in that discussion. You are not alone in your pain! I think you should write to the moderators of the group if you feel you are not being supported and explain in what way and maybe they can help, we have good moderators. I don't know what kind of help you are looking for and sorry you feel you must go, I hope you reconsider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faye: I'm truly sorry you have not gotten the responses you seem to need so badly. I though I had answered at least some of them; but perhaps I'm mistaken. It really is unusual that at least one or two members did not respond to you. If you have written in the past week, I have to admit I probably did not answer. My DH almost died from blood clots in this lungs and just got home yesterday afternoon after 10 days in the hospital. I'll go back and look in the archived message and try to respond to you this weekend. {{{And Pain-free Wishes}}} Carol " In the little decisions of life, use your mind; in the big decisions, use your heart " [author unknown] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 6, 2002 Report Share Posted July 6, 2002 Faye, Actually, this list is pretty good at helping people out- a lot better than another I can think of that is very clicqish. Maybe no one knew the answers to your questions?? Di RE: Pain help-Do you only answer certain people? Do you only reply to people you know or what? I sent numerous letters requesting help over the last couple of weeks. What do you have to do around here to get help? I will now go to unsubscribe from this list and find a list who is willing to help out a person in pain. Faye A. Know someone who could profit from our list?
